Robert Feinstein is a Partner with the Los Angeles office and a member of the Employment practice group. He has been exclusively engaged in the practice of employment and labor law since 1976, both in the private and public sectors.
Examples of Mr. Feinstein's extensive experience includes the following:
- Mr. Feinstein obtained a defense verdict following an eight day jury trial. The defendant, a plastics company, had terminated the plaintiff's employment following an altercation with another worker. Mr. Feinstein had earlier secured summary adjudication prevailing on the wrongful termination and retaliation claims. The case then proceeded to trial on the remaining claims of sexual harassment and failure to prevent sexual harassment. Plaintiff contended that his co workers had used derogatory words in reference to him. The defense argued that such terms were never directed to plaintiff and that plaintiff raised issues concerning harassment only when his own inappropriate behavior was addressed. The jury returned a defense verdict in less than one and a quarter hours.
